Very useful concepts to help with learning. The course has embedded in the course design what it is trying to teach the students to learn, such as space-repetition, recall, analogy and metaphor, to name a few. I enjoyed the course and the learning. Many memorable points such as the flying mule.

I have not been involved in college courses in many years. I've worked in corporate America and this was a refreshing change of communication. I learned a lot! I've left corporate I, now I'm a contractor. I cannot believe how much I learned from you to use even in my day-to-day life. Thank you!

Excellent course! The instructors are very experienced and kind. All the tips and concepts are very important and all professionals at any discipline must learn them. I will definitely take their next course: "Mindshift: Break Through Obstacles to Learning and Discover Your Hidden Potential"

Excellent course - I recommend it! Why don't they teach this stuff in school? It's practical information that will serve you over your lifetime. A good chunk of the material is techniques you may already be doing or heard of but there's enough in here to walk away with new ideas and new habits.

Every student needs to take this course so that they can cut through the nonsense out there about studying and improve their own study habits. Ditch highlighters, learning styles, supplements (except ritalin...amazing stuff) and be open and honest with oneself about ones appaling study methods.

Loved this course! Although I was familiar with many things they discussed in the course, like the Pomodoro method many others may not be. I liked the summary of helpful tips in the fourth week and honestly it's a very simple course to complete. Definitely worth the 2-3 hours per week workload.

Very good and quick course, which gives you some hints on what you can improve in your approach to studying. It's a valuable resource of learning advice and mechanisms which allow your mind to learn. It's a great subject to study not only as a fundamental for other studies, but also on its own.

How to Learn is perhaps the most relevant skill for anyone at any age. More than anything, our capacity to learn is what allows us to move with the increasing pace our world is running today. Thank you so much Barbara and Terrence! This is definitely one of the most priceless lessons I've had!

This course was very much fun and has excellent learning materials. Everyone should learn this techniques to enhance/improve their method of learning. It would be better if such type of courses are taken during the school days so we all can improve accordingly but it is never too late to learn.
